Meson can generate the list of private dependencies of libraries
automatically for the pkgconfig file only since version 0.45.0.

Thinking about it more, this doesn't seem to actually be the root-cause of
the reported problem. You said in the other thread that you reproduced the
problem with v0.45.2 which is >= 0.45

I think the documentation linked there is wrong - looking at the
release notes in the repository, it's 0.46 that mentions that new
feature, not 0.45:

https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/blob/master/docs/markdown/Release-notes-for-0.46.0.md#improved-generation-of-pkg-config-files-for-static-only-libraries

I'll check if I can repro with 0.46 to confirm

Yes I can confirm that it's 0.46 that actually fixes the issue, so I'll
send a v2 with the updated version.
